Entry will be 100RMB per head with recommended team size of four.

His Royal Looseness Lapthorne LXXXVII is being whisked away next week to Italy (why don’t they get any medals in diving at the olympics?) for matrimonial duties.

So This Friday is our final opportunity to get LOOOOOOOSE before the screws go on.

Festivities due to kick off at the Shed and go on and on and on

Stats will be at the Shed to collect from anyone still owing for their Blazers

UPDATE: Itinerary thanks to Santa;
For Dean’s (Lapthornes) aka Loose Loosington’s bucks party, initial details are as follows.
Kicking off from 6pm at The Shed. Lane 210 Taikang Lu. Most of you know where it is. If not, ask Dean.
At The Shed, there will be the Aussie Rules Footy on TV, the BBQ will be spitting out Burgers, Snags and steaks, whilst the Pie Oven will be full of pies and sausage rolls. It’s help yourself to the Beer, Pies and BBQ until about 9pm. Cost here per person is 100rmb, all you can grab.
At about 9pm, we grab taxis and head to the ‘Boo. There is a keg on for us in the back room. All chip in for this (I will collect money at The Shed), and we suck that keg dry.
Once the keg is dry, we move on down to Tongren Lu for the Beerlympics. Starting at that joint to the left of Blue Frog, we work our way down as far as we can. One beer in each venue (to be paid for separately). All bars except Annies are on the list (I am not handing over any money to them bastards).
Let the Looseness begin!

The Biggest flashest social event of the year. Bashers are set to glow on the red carpet in their new Blazers. By now you should all have RSVP’d to The Tank (custodian@basherscc.org)

Pres-Opinion

Bashers, break out the tissues - Basher #1 is leaving us.

He’s called for all Bashers to come out with brave faces and attend a PICKNICK this Sunday at Century Park in Pudong. Go to the Century Park entrance from the Century Park railway station from about 12.30 and ring a Basher you know and find everyone for this final day out in Shanghai before our beloved Shrek returns to his Princess Fiona.

Next Time we see him will be fainting during the live feed to the birth of his child during the sixes dinner.

Bring; Food, Friends, Family, Footies, Frisbies, Blankies, Brollies, Booze, Babies and your Bad Arsed Selves
